<br />
[[Karwar]] is connected by [[Konkan Railway]] which connects [[Delhi]], [[Bengaluru]], [[Mumbai]], [[Ajmer]], [[Jaipur]], [[Mysuru]], [[Rajkot]], [[Ernakulam]], [[Indore]], [[Bhopal]], [[Thiruvananthapuram]], [[Coimbatore]], [[Jaipur]], [[Ratlam]], [[Madurai]],. [[Hubli]]–[[Ankola]] railway line is proposed to link Karwar Port and the northern Karnataka as well as [[Honnavar]]–[[Talaguppa]] railway line.<br />
<br />
However, the Save Konkan Ecology Forum (SKEF) is strictly & violently opposing [[Hubli]]–[[Ankola]] railway line & [[Honnavar]]–[[Talaguppa]] railway line projects, citing concerns regarding destruction & disruption of ecology, environment, forest, animals, flora & fauna of Ankola Forest & Talguppa Forest regions. [[Karwar]] is just {{convert|60.84|km|mi|2|abbr=on}} away from Madgaon in Goa.<br />
